This might be related to bug 1324529. On my Lenovo T530, there is only thinkpad_screen in /sys/class/backlight. The fixes suggested here (the acpi_backlight=vendor and 80-backlight.conf) do not fix the issue for me and echoing numbers into /sys/class/backlight/thinkpad_screen/brightness does nothing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1307064 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 Beta cannot adjust brightness on Lenovo Ideapad Z570 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1307064/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1307064] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 Beta cannot adjust brightness on Lenovo Ideapad Z570
I have a similar problem with a lenovo x230 recently upgraded from 13.10 to 14.04 and lost backlight control both with hot keys and using gnome settings (this is ubuntu GNOME). Fix in the x11 conf doesn't work for me. I have two entries in my /sys/class/backlight intel_backlight and thinkad_screen. As with the previous poster, the settings slider changes thinkpad_screen/brightness but not intel_backlight/brightness. I can manually change the brightness by modifyng the value under intel_backlight. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1307064 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 Beta cannot adjust brightness on Lenovo Ideapad Z570 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1307064/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks, it works on Lenovo B580 but only in combination of both "acpi_backlight=vendor" and "80-backlight.conf".

[Bug 1307064] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 Beta cannot adjust brightness on Lenovo Ideapad Z570
Problem solved. Tried adding acpi_backlight=vendor to boot parameter. Did not work So I tried the recommendation for Intel HD Graphic Controllers. Created the file /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/80-backlight.conf with below contents as recommended. Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "sna" Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight" # use your backlight that works here BusID "PCI:0:2:0" EndSection Problem Solved. I am still running the upstream kernel at this time.

[Bug 1307064] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 Beta cannot adjust brightness on Lenovo Ideapad Z570
I think I should elaborate on my previous post. I have 2 entries in /sys/class/backlight acpi_video0 intel_backlight When I use the slider in the brightness applet or the hotkeys to change the brightness, the value of /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 is changing. This being the case, I believe that if I could point both of those to /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness the problem would be solved.

I appologize for the poorly written original bug report. I was very tired and had been working on this for some time. As mentioned at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight, I think that it may be helpful if I include that I do have entries in /sys/class/backlight.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.15 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.
